- They are at least 18 years old by the date of the next election.
- They are a resident of the state of Arizona at least 29 days prior to the election date.

- They have not been adjudicated as an incapacitated person.
How Can I Register to Vote?
Most Arizona residents will find it easiest to register to vote online through the Service Arizona EZ Voter Registration through the Motor Vehicle Division.
If that is not an option, prospective voters may print, fill out, and mail the Arizona Voter Registration Form to their county recorder’s office. Alternatively, they may walk into their county recorder’s office to fill out the registration form in person.
What is the Voter Registration Deadline?
The voter registration deadline for each election is 29 days prior to the specific election. If this date happens to fall on a weekend or state holiday, the deadline will be extended to the next business day. For more information, visit the Secretary of State’s elections page.
